My to reflexion on stupidity of times zones

If there is 1 A.M in London shouldn't be say 4 P.M here or there.

Where is stated that work must starts at 8 AM not 4 PM (new time) ?

One world - One time for ALL



OK technically, I do not propose to lighten suddenly whole world at same time and switch the light off.
We just do start our working day accordingly to sun shine.
Additional advantage that when you say that you do start work at 4PM that describe your position on the globe instantly.
Similarly New Year celebration will start at same time everywhere, Champagne corks pop up all at ones , not whole 24 hours ! Some at night and some in the middle of the day !!

and it will fade the curtains, upset the chooks, confuse the cows, too much trouble getting the kids asleep..........

It's called GMT.

I don't understand what you're on about, it's nonsense.

I sort of approve, our digital set top box has an inbuilt glitch. For timed starts it uses GMT, very confusing having to remember to subtract 8hrs, I've missed the program too many times.

For some people living within the world : contacting people, doing business, even flying turist , trading shares and Forex that is paramount to have precise time for others time measured in moon tides could be sufficient ( go on the beach when tide is high - that is all needed in life)

Yeah, what a great idea!

If you live in England, and get used to the sun rising at 7am, and setting at 7pm, and then go on holidays somewhere else...

"what time does the sun rise here? Oh, 5pm? No worries. What time does it set? 5am, ah okay."

That'd be easy to understand!
